Get to know Coach Nicholas
About Me:
I graduated from University of Saint Joseph with a bachelor’s in General Business Management. I worked for almost four years during and after school as a homemaker/companion for an elderly man. I am plan to run my own cosmetology business eventually and will begin school for that down the road.
How I can help you improve your game:
I can help someone improve their game with the knowledge that I have gathered over the years. I have played as a goalie and d-mid so I can help people on both sides of the ball. I can help offensive players better their shot, protect their stick better, and learn new dodges. For defensive players I can show them different techniques to take the ball away and drive the offensive player down the alley
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical training session will look like the following:
- quick warmup
- find out what the client would like to focus on
- create a few drills related to the task at hand
- if someone wanted to take shots I will suit up and step in the goal
If someone would like to practice dodging I will inmate the defensive player
And for goalies training I have some very unique techniques to ensure they step to the ball properly and become a stonewall in between the pipes!
Career summary and accomplishments:
I coached with my college coach from the University of Saint Joseph at pomperaug high school every Sunday in 2018 to help them prepare for their 2018 season.. we went over clearing drills, defensive schemes, offensive tactics, and even polished up anyone that needed help with basic skills
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach that I ever had was my high school lacrosse coach at Cheshire Academy, Coach AJ, because he had an amazing personality. He also had a very good balance when it came to being serious but also having those good laughs. He was like a father figure to me off the field which was truly amazing and he just wanted the utmost best for his players.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I’m in the process of completing my personal training certification along with the following:
- nutrition certification
- exercise therapy certification
- AED and CPR certifications
Should be completed with those certifications within the next month

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.
Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
